County Government Day 2026
On Tuesday, November 10, 2026, the Diller-Odell junior class visited the Fairbury Courthouse for County Government Day. Schools that were in attendance included Diller-Odell, Fairbury, and Meridian. The day began in the courtroom with introductions of those who hold various jobs at or associated with the courthouse. The schools were split into groups and had the opportunity to visit the many offices to get a better understanding of what takes place within each and ask questions. The offices that students visited were as follows: County Court, attorney, commissions, extension, assessor, treasurer, clerk, Veterans Affairs, highway, ambulance, and sheriff. Hopefully by attending County Government Day, students have a better understanding of how local government works and some of the jobs that help it to run.
